Peri- zwelg, director of the WJC?s International Affairs Department, stated that discussions were now taking place between the WJC and the governments of Morocco and Tunisia on basic issueti af¬ fecting tbe Jewish communities in those countries.
Dr. (Soldstein noted a decline in antl-SemltIsm in Latin Ameri¬ can countries in recent years.

also benefits the local Jewish commimitles," Dr. CSoldstein ad¬ ded.
"I came away with a feelihg of great respect for the Jewish; caliber of Latin American com¬ munities,'' Dr. Goldstein went on..

"On the other hand, their re¬ ligious Institutions, the coijgre- gations and synagogues, do not occupy as Important a part as congregations and synagogues In North American Jewry."
"Their economic situation is generally good. In the general poli¬ tical life they are now beginning to play a larger role as demo¬ cratic regimes come into power."
THE WJO leader said the JeiV- Ish communities In Latin America look to the World Jewish 06a- gress for cultural and spiritual assistance. The chief Jewish need is for the rabbis and teachers, ot which there Is an acute shortage nearly everywhere in Latin AmelT- lea.
